- A big thank you to everyone for all their suggestions and recommendations for great places to eat and buffets in Toronto. I had the opportunity to travel to Toronto and explore this amazing city. After visiting an iconic buffet such as the Mandarin Buffet last week, I can't wait to try a Middle Easter buffet called the Jerusalem Buffet this weekend.
I was pleasantly surprised with all the great appetizers and amazing hot foods which includes stuffed chicken, roast lamb, seafoods, and a whole roasted fish. What was more surprising were the amazing breads freshly made. I enjoyed the Za'atar (zaatar) very much to the point of ordering a second basket. To cap things off, a new dessert discovery! Kanafeh/Konafa, a creamy confection with soft melty cheese sandwiched between shredded phyllo pastry. Thank you again for joining and hope you get a chance to enjoy!

You’re always so polite… love the way that you take the time to learn people’s names.
I didn't know you watch Tim Lee Sharon 😄
@@DavidSriracha yes 😊 I love his perspective and he’s always so polite. When I grow up, I want to be like that. 😂
I think there's many things in common between the channels.. looks like Texas and Vancouver/Toronto are very similar in many respects 😃
Thanks Tim for supporting these places!
Hi Jim. LoL I'm not sure who's supporting who, but really enjoying visiting these great eateries 😋. Really nice places and great servers and hosts 🙂
Darn it Tim! How can you eat so much and look so slim? I love Middle Eastern Food too!!!
Hi Calvin, likewise...love middle eastern food and even better when it's unlimited 😋
He walks to all his buffets lol
Been here many times, nick is a great manager
Tim I love your videos! Your one of the most polite and gracious person on the web. Keep up the good work on showing pure appreciation for the servers and staff. Your manners are impeccable! Wait daily to see if you've put up something new!!!!
Thank you for your kind comment Desiree 🙂. Really enjoying these places and very grateful that everyone was such good sports 🙂. Work has been quite hectic so don't really have a chance to visit place as much but hopefully getting some time back now 🙂
You're always really nice to everyone in your videos. Great to see!
Hi Kosan, it's quite fun getting to interact with everyone there. Everyone was so engaging and overzealous with the food, which is a good thing 😉
My Dad lives in Cyprus so visiting him means lots of Mediterranean food! I love it! I wish we had a buffet like this one in Vancouver. Tfs. It looks awesome.
Great buffet! Wow so many appetizers & delicious foods! Thanks for sharing Tim as always please stay safe and healthy! 👍🏽 Glad you’re able to enjoy buffets again! I would love to see the Lobster 🦞 all you can eat! 😋
Hi Lady Murasaki, very enjoyable indeed and it was quite nice to get so many suggestions on places to go try. They certainly did not disappoint and makes a trip more fun 😀
OMG... Tim, those Vegan delicacies made my heart beat palpitating so wildly! Great glad tidings! And You're the messanger for them! Thank You very much, Tim!🐬🐸🐳🧚♂️🌻
Those vegan options were very good and second to none! Very enjoyable indeed Petr 😋
Oh I love Mediterranean food and to have it on a buffet like that would be absolute heaven! Thanks so much for taking us along on all your food journeys. ❤
Hi Goodi2shooz! Hope you're keeping well 🙂. It was quite a nice meal indeed.. so much lamb and Seafood 😋
it is not Mediterranean food but Middle Eastern food --there is a big difference...like saying Chinese food and Japanese food are the same...
Excellent !!! Loving Tim’s gourmet adventure across 🇨🇦. Look forward to more tasty food soon
Thanks Samantha, hope you and your husband are doing well... Really enjoyed the visit to the different provinces in Canada 🙂
Thanks for the video, Tim. I was smart this time and ate before watching it. Stay Safe.
LoL, thank you so much Tom!
This was such a different type of buffet, loved it! The bread and hummus looks awesome. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you Katie! Couldn't believe how good the bread was 😀
We've never tried the Jerusalem Buffet, but it's definitely on the list when we get back in Toronto. Thanks for sharing this gem!
It's quite a nice find, and really impressed with all the great places in Toronto!
Lovely Atmosphere, the open feeling with sunlight shinning in is perfect, but the food is the star. That flatbread crispy toasty bread with those appetizers and seafood salads was a great starter😃 This place is incredible, especially the Lamb and whole fish. Oh, and huge congratulations on the last episodes numbers!!! Thanks for this delicious share:) Best wishes, James and Kim ❤
Thanks Jame and Kim! Very glad to be able to visit these places again! Almost feels somewhat normal again! Hope you all are doing well and getting out a bit also (safely). Take care :-)
I love watching your videos and seeing you trying new buffet. The food looks amazing and the servers are so nice. I am looking forward to seeing more of your adventures. ❤️ from Arizona.
Thank you again Loanne! Love the middle eastern foods and I suspect a buffet is the best way to try new dishes. Was really pleasantly surprised with the Zataar bread! All the best to you!
Entirely amazed!! Already salivating...
Tim's videos are always enjoyable to watch.
Thank you for the very kind comment S H!
"We'll be safe in the buffet."
Me: "Yes, I will shelter in place in the buffet, thank you." 😂
Agreed Ingrid 😀. Whether it's a storm, or a zombie apocalypse, I can't think of a better place to seek refuge 😉
Awesome video Tim, such s great selection of great dishes. Looks like you got some work ahead of you, that table is full lol. Stay safe and have blessed day. Aloha from Kansas
Hello Martin and greetings from Vancouver 🙂. They were quite overzealous with the food in the nicest possible way 😉. Hope you're keeping well and staying safe also!
Qué exquisito se ve todo, aparte con la dulzura que habla y explica y saborea cada comida, es un gusto mirar sus vídeos, aparte uno conoce también. Gracias. 🇦🇷👏🏻👍🏻🇺🇸
Hey Tim, wonderful, I've enjoyed your new video again, lots of delicious culinary stimulus! Thank you very much!
Thank you again Patrick! And I hope you're doing well 😃
Hey Tim, thank you. I am doing well, hope you are doing well too.
In this moment while writing, I am actually watching (better say rewatching) your 2 videos about making the Tandoor oven for Tandoori chicken and the other episode about the roasted Peking duck.
I am very impressed and I appreciate your ingenuity, skill, craft and perseverance in making the oven and to improve it, from the bottom of my heart I do appreciate this virtue very much which makes watching your video so enjoyable for me. I hope to meet you some day in the future to exchange ideas, sort of after the pandemic.
@@PatAcct It's kinda fun just tinkering and adjusting. A tasty way to spend the time ;-)
Dear@@TimLeeLetsGothat's indeed much fun and I've learn quite a lot. I am impressed really. Guess this is what we take it - kind of fun and rewarding and also a way of sharing the fun. Keep the best effort!
Been enjoying your vids. I love Med-Eas food. Might be my favorite cuisine now (passing Italian). The bread has za'atar seasoning on it (thyme, sumac and sesame). It's an amazing spice blend.
The breads were unbelievable 😋
What an Amazingly Polite individual you are, it’s so refreshing…🙂💫
Just having fun with these videos and really grateful that the hosts and servers there were such good sports 😃
"I hope you are keeping well and I hope you are eating well." What a great way to end all of your videos!
Thank you Kim🙂
Thank you, Tim, for giving we buffet-philes our fix! You killed me, though, when you only took one lemon potato...I would have taken the entire pan! Love Middle Eastern food...we had a place here called "21 Salads," an AYCE where they brought small dishes of, yes, 21 different kinds of salads. You would have enjoyed it.
Thanks Michael! With a name like 21 salads, I would definitely check it out! As long as one of the salads is potato, I'm good 😋
@@TimLeeLetsGo Unfortunately they closed several years ago :(
Yes so amazing
Boy o boy...you have to have a great appetite to enjoy all those dishes. Food looked amazing.
Middle Eastern Cuisine is my favorite. It all looks so delicious and your presentation is wonderful. Thankyou.
That looks AMAZING! :)) Too bad calories still count. Wish we had a nice buffet like that in Dallas
Thank you Tim! :)
thank you so much! Sure enjoy going out with you, thank you again, for taking us all along :)
what excellent Service Dave. wow, noted
Thank you again so much f417h! The servers and hosts there were fantastic to everyone!
Great video Tim!!, I will have to check this place out. Your a legend.
It was quite a pleasant experience 😋. Hope you get a chance to give it a try!
Tim is so pleasant. As for the food... it all looks delicious. I am full just looking at all the selections.
I just finished my dinner but while watching your video I feel hungry for food from Jerusalem Buffet!
Oh, that Zatar bread and the eggplant dips were so tasty... I could sure use some now also!
What a fantastic choice. Such variety. Love how friendly you are to all the food folks.
Everyone there were such good sports... A very family-oriented restaurant
Yay Tim! I do enjoy your videos! So glad buffets are back!!!
Likewise Daria :-D
Tim, please do some content on parsian/mideastern food here in Vancouver too.
Oh, thanks for the suggestion! Will definitely check out some Persian places in Vancovuer :-P
Mediterranean food isn’t my thing, but I love to see any of your videos. The Lobster Buffet sounds marvelous! Let’s go!🦂
Hi Sofia, really grateful for all the suggestions and the places people are recommending gets better and better. The lobster buffet was something else 😃
Thanks for sharing. Definitely will visit when in Toronto. 💕👍
Thanks for taking us long. Luv your videos. Stay safe.
Thank you again for the kind comment. Much appreciated :-)
That was wonderful. Thank you. 😊
Thank you so much🙏
Whoa so many dishes here and culture! I learned a couple things in this video
I am excited to try this restaurant this evening with my family. I’ll write a review once we come back home.
Nothing like Middle Eastern Cuisine to satisfy your tummy. Great video Tim.
Thank you Appolo P. That baba ganoush and the bread was so good 😋
@@TimLeeLetsGo Tim, the zaatar spices can be found at any Middle Eastern grocery store. When making and baking fresh bread at home, sprinkle or spread(mix with some olive oil) the spices onto the dough, your kitchen will smell like heaven. Just look how, zaatar bread its done, on CZcams.
Wow this one looks amazing! For the price point it looks really worth it! Everyone seems so friendly there! Great video
Hi Yuzi, I've notice the cost for food/restaurants are very reasonable in Toronto. Definitely good value and good experience also 😃
Great video and review ! I have been to Jerusalem restaurant many times with my family, Great food and service .
Thanks for reaching out Andre, what was your favorite? I really like the zatar breads
As others have said, your calm and pleasant demeanor make your videos nice to watch. Also love the food too of course.
I think that was before the coffee 😉
This is another video I can watch more than once since the homestyle food looks so delicious and comforting especially as the weather gets colder. As always, your videos are a pleasure to watch since you take us on interesting and yummy food tours which you so eloquently narrate and are also educational as I always learn something new after watching. Thanks for doing what you do. Stay safe and healthy. Take care.
Thank you so much again stay true 🙂. I must say that the food at the Jerusalem or restaurant it was amazing! Many vegetarian options were so good they were simply the second to none. All the best to you 🙂
Hi tim another great video food looked awesome. Can't wait until you find a great deli!! Will be looking forward to the next great video. 😀😀
Thank you again Calvin and much appreciate the encouragement for the hunt for the deli :-). I think we did find a place in Montreal 😀
What a healthy way of eating ...love all the surprise veggies
Oh, I didn't realize most of the appitizers where vegetarian...and loved it😋

Awesome Tim. This place was on my bucket list for a long time.
Hi Dave, it was certainly a very nice experience😉. Really surprised to find so many great places to eat around Toronto 😋
So glad things are opening back up. Missed your buffets with friends. Not big on veggies but that buffet looks awesome.
Hi Sally, certainly nice to see things open back up. I was pleasantly surprised to find so many great places mainly due to the suggestions I'm getting.. lol I didn't realize most of the appetizers were veggies at the start 😉
LOVE YOUR VIDEOS THANKS
Thank you Linda!
Wow, I could have made a meal out of the appetizers. Thanks for taking us along.
Yeah, they certainly weren't skimpy with the appetizers 😃
Yes Tim....Montreal Casino. Best Boeuf Bourguignon ever! It's on an island right above the Grand Prix track.
Looks bomb... The seafood salads looked so good.
Hi Ross, yeah, the seafood salads are the best type of salads to have 😋. They certainly do it well with large chunks of shrimp etc. Thank you again 😃
Wow! Tim, you have a feast on your table! The next time I visit Toronto, I will definitely try this buffet. Everything looked delicious!
Oh, the table really gets piled up 😃

Thank you so much Jade! Was very pleasantly surprised with the zatar bread as well. The baba ganoush was very well done and probably the favorite... And I think it's somewhat healthy too 😃
That food looked delicious! I’m not a buffet person (so, I watch you lol), but I would try this place.
That's a different buffet and the Kanufa sounds very nice.
Hello RiverDanube, yeah, very grateful to find different places... I think the Kunafa is one of the top desserts! ...just a bit of ice cream and it'll be perfect 😀
I had a Turkish coffee once, 3 sips and I was buzzing for two days. Never again, LOL
I would have been stuffed with all those apps. Everything looked pretty great. Did your white shirt go unscathed? Haha!
Yeah, it's always a bit tricky with white shirts... maybe added a few polka dots here and there 😉
😄😄😄😄😄❤❤❤👍👍👍👍i love watching you and your appreciation for all that food..lol
Thank you again 🙂
wow making me hungery here
